Use this guide to enable Multi-Factor Authentication and Single Sign-on (SSO) access via SAML to ExactTarget.
1. Have an ExactTarget account with SAML capabilities enabled
2. Create a New Realm for the ExactTarget integration in the SecureAuth IdP Web Admin
3. Configure the following tabs in the Web Admin before configuring the Post Authentication tab:
Overview – the description of the realm and SMTP connections must be defined
Data – an enterprise directory must be integrated with SecureAuth IdP
Workflow – the way in which users will access this application must be defined
Multi-Factor Methods – the Multi-Factor Authentication methods that will be used to access this page (if any) must be defined
1. In the Profile Fields section, map the directory field that contains the user's ExactTarget ID to the SecureAuth IdP Property
For example, add the ExactTarget ID directory field to the Email 2 Property if it is not already contained somewhere else
Warning
Click Save once the configurations have been completed and before leaving the Data page to avoid losing changes
2. In the Post Authentication section, select SAML 2.0 (IdP Initiated) Assertion Page from the Authenticated User Redirect dropdown
3. An unalterable URL is auto-populated in the Redirect To field, which appends to the domain name and realm number in the address bar (Authorized/SAML20IdPInit.aspx)
4. Select the SecureAuth IdP Property that corresponds to the directory field that contains the ExactTarget ID (Email 2)
5. Select urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.1:nameid-format:unspecified from the Name ID Format dropdown (default)
Select a different option if ExactTarget requires it, which the Service Provider (SP) provides
6. Set the SAML Consumer URL to https://auth.s1.exacttarget.com/Shibboleth.sso/SAML2/POST
7. Set the WSFed/SAML Issuer to a Unique Name that is shared with ExactTarget
The WSFed/SAML Issuer must match exactly on the SecureAuth IdP side and the ExactTarget side
8. Set the SAML Recipient to https://auth.s1.exacttarget.com/Shibboleth.sso/SAML2/POST
9. Set the SAML Audience to https://sp.exacttarget.com/shibboleth-sp
10. Set the SAML Offset Minutes to make up for differences between devices
11. Set the SAML Valid Hours to limit for how long the SAML assertion is valid
No configuration is required for the WSFed Reply To/SAML Target URL or SP Start URL fields
12. Leave the Signing Cert Serial Number as the default value, unless there is a third-party certificate being used for the SAML assertion
If using a third-party certificate, then click Select Certificate and choose the preferred certificate
13. Provide the Domain in order to Download the Metadata File, which is sent to ExactTarget

These are optional configurations
